He had to settle for second behind winner Alastair Seeley in the first Superstock race after being overtaken on the last lap.

Rutter said: "In the big Superbike race I lead from the start, we just struggled to keep with the top three on the straights. We were running a superstock engine against factory superbikes so overall I’m really happy with the weeks qualifying and racing. We were front row in every class, it was pretty decent”.
